Fake Faces....

on Friday, April 2, 2010


This is one of the things which i experience the most in my daily life. Most of the people i meet everyday have some kind of mask on their faces which they are not even aware of due to their ignorance about their inner truth but can be easily observed. Its not their wish but they are forced to do that because it has become the essential component of their life.

For some people it's very painful to wear a mask but have to adopt a fake face because they are afraid to show their pain and sufferings as they don't want to hurt the people they love. They don't want to show the sadness of their heart that how much they are broken from inside and wear a mask of being the happiest people on this earth while few others who are afraid of loosing their position, they hold in the society, likes to wear a mask to hide their weakness and incapability. There are some people who wear a mask as if they are not at all concerned what's happening around them in their life despite of being very well aware of the fact that how much deep they are in their thoughts. In the same way some adopt a fake personality of being very disciplined about their life while a good majority of crowd try to show themselves as the most responsible people on this earth when they know that they are not. You will also meet some of the people who wear a mask of being very good friend of yours just because of some selfish motive.

But the fact is that whatever be the actual reason is, one thing is for sure that having a fake personality of any kind takes us away from our own reality. We start living a life of being some different kind of person which has got no connection to our own reality. We become a stranger to ourselves.

To live your life, it's not at all necessary to change yourself. It's actually your attitude which decides the destiny of life. Everyone is special in his/her own ways. Our fake face forces us to live in the world of dreams which is far away from the reality. I feel suffocation when i think about these masks on our faces. It makes it really difficult to trust someone and trust is an important ingredient which adds warmth and happiness in our lives. Wearing a mask can give you a short term happiness but when you reach your deathbed and think about all those faces which you have encountered with in your life, then only you come to know about the intensity of that severe pain deep inside your heart which arises by the realization of the truth that you were living the life of a fake. It hurts when you realize that your life could have been so better, happy and satisfied hadn't you wear any kind of masks. Having a fake face means you are not cheating others only but yourself too.

It's a problem with all of us that we like to have fake faces in our lives. We like a person who praises us even when we do something wrong but our heart doesn't want to trust that one who says the truth. And ultimately, it is both of the people who suffer severe losses and pain. Sometimes it's not bad to adopt a fake face if you are able to give happiness to others without any selfish motives. But to wear a mask for your own benefit is the proof of your weakness that how much you are afraid of loosing in life. God has given us just one life and has left the choice on us that how we want to live it. Then why to waste it living the life of somebody's else. If somebody truly loves you then he/she will stay with you otherwise will go away. Be yourself, live in reality, come out of yours unrealistic dreams, throw away all kinds of mask from your face and have true faith in God, then only you come to know what's life is all about and will come to know the way to make your life beautiful!!!
